Putting together a good aftermarket suspension setup will help most cars out.

You cannot just say that “slamming” a car is always good. There is a lot more to the equation than ride height.

I know this is tough to understand but here are some very basic info for you. (like 2nd thing found on google for suspension geometry)

[http://autospeed.com/cms/A\_111163/article.html](http://autospeed.com/cms/A_111163/article.html)

If you prefer books I’m sure I could go dig through my shelf and recommend some of those for you. Slammed does not mean it handles well.

I raised the front 1.25 and put the stock back springs in. I like the front now, but need to lower the back about 1".

these are the FK coilovers (front), and shortened strut + spring in back. I also replace the control arms and bushings.
